The Written ( Emaneska book 1)
By. Ben Galley

His name is Farden. They whisper that he's dangerous. Dangerous is only the half of it. Something has gone missing from the libraries of Arfell. Something very old, and something very powerful. Five scholars are now dead, a country is once again on the brink of war, and the magick council is running out of time and options. Entangled in a web of lies and politics and dragged halfway across icy Emaneska and back, Farden must unearth a secret even he doesn't want to know, a secret that will shake the foundations of his world. Dragons, drugs, magick, death, and the deepest of betrayals await. Breathtakingly vast, chillingly dark, brooding and dangerous, The Written will leave you impatiently waiting for the next adventure. Welcome to Emaneska.


Not going to lie I struggled for the first half of the book! I decided around chapter 11 not to give up. It got so much better the world building is good the concept is good and it’s very well written. The dragons are the big draw in this for me they really lifted the story and completely changed my mind. Worth a read if you like fantasy YA.

Oh man, I did not think I was going to like this book as much as I did. First off, I love dragons. They're some of my favorite mythical creatures so naturally this book intrigued me. I have to say, I really loved this book. The characters were strong & I could easily relate to them. Isabella was a fun character to watch grow. Her tenacity was admirable & I kept rooting for her. The plot was unique & kept me guessing which I really appreciated.

All in all, I loved the character growth & I will definitely continue on in this series.
